Pet care experience

Your animal's best sitter-friend🐾

My mom has always reminded me, animals gravitate toward people who they can detect "safe signals". She also taught me, an animal's love is so pure. Growing up, she always made time to stop and "moooooooo" at any cows in their pastures, and "neighhhh" for horses. I frequently make time to do this with my son. I am a very patient, and accepting person, friends and family members often comment on this, especially regarding motherhood and pet-parenthood. I don't mind to work with pets on training, within reason. Leash training, simple commands, etc.

Kingsley had so much fun and slept for a very long time once she got home! Shelby was amazing with her, had great communication, and provided pictures. Kingsley can’t wait until her next visit!

Shelby is literally amazing. She was willing to take on a last minute booking without ever meeting myself or my pups before. I will 100% be booking with her in the future!

Schedule

Being a mom is my #1 calling in life, but my family needs something to support our future dreams. I figured I might as well start doing something I love, and work with animals. I am extremely flexible and can work you and your pets into my day.

Safety, trust & environment

My preference is to spend quality time with animals, so that will be dictated by each pet. I would love to get your pet active and playing/walking/training. At home, we have an acre homestead and visiting animals are always contented by our "outside time". Each animals needs and care will depend on specific owner requests.

Pets

A typical day

My family spends lots of time outside, we love stomping around the garden and playing with our animals. We take our chickens on bike rides and let our ducks swim in the pool. You never know what kind if exciting day your pet will have. We have direct access to the Pensy Trail and can hop right on for a walk.
